Re: Question re. I485 for family

I am not sure I agree with the answer on this occasion.

It seems you are thinking that the OP would have to sponsor under F2A, which isn't the case, since they are already married.

Re: First Time Completing Tax Return - SSN question

That's exactly how it worked for us as well.

I needed an ITIN, so I had to fill in a Form W-7 and attach the tax return to that.

Re: Going from O1 to EB1 in the arts

Although not articulated in the INA as H and L visas are, O visas are dual intent under 8CFR.

The relevant section is 8CFR 214.2(o)(13) :

Re: Entering under an R1 Visa

It removes that hurdle - yes.

I still don't see your duties (as described) fitting an R-1 visa.

It doesn't sound like you would qualify under R-1 from what I could find. Quite apart from the nature of the work, you may not qualify for some of the other requirements, such as being a member of...

Re: Expat Tax Software

I've used ProTax Light for the last 5 years http://www.tax.co.uk/light/index.htm.

Re: The Sausage Conundrum

My take on it.
